Cream of the Cannabis Crop

A new dispensary in downtown Jersey City is on a mission to transform the cannabis retail experience. Cream and its owners Heinrich Badenhorst, AJ Prasaguet, and Nicole and John Caracciola are breaking away from the conventional, impersonal dispensary model and emphasizing customer engagement and education in its shop.

“The potency of cannabis can vary widely depending on factors like the strain, growing conditions, and processing methods,” Heinrich Badenhorst explains. “It’s important to know what you’re taking.”

That’s where Cream’s clerks, playfully referred to as “The Budtenders,” come in. They are available to answer any and all questions. Says Badenhorst, “they’re charged with making sure customers are dosing on our fine strains properly and safely.”

The shop is also experiential. On one day, customers might find an educational workshop taking place in Cream’s back conference room; the next day there might a DJ spinning records in the middle of the store. Customers are encouraged to chillax in the store and fly high on the creamy clouds of smoke at Cream.

It's a concept that Badenhorst, Prasaguet, and the Caracciolas believe can work outside of downtown Jersey City. They are looking to bring Cream’s unique blend of quality and culture to more cities. We spoke with Heinrich Badenhorst from the Jersey City shop.
